To 2019 go the spoils: What is opening this year?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

The gaps between developments continue to be filled around Christchurch, slowly bringing a sense of completeness to the rebuild of the earthquake-ravaged CBD.

But what is set to open in 2019? Which fences are coming down? Where will Christchurch folk be shopping and hanging out in the next 12 … View more
The gaps between developments continue to be filled around Christchurch, slowly bringing a sense of completeness to the rebuild of the earthquake-ravaged CBD.

But what is set to open in 2019? Which fences are coming down? Where will Christchurch folk be shopping and hanging out in the next 12 months?

We take a look at both public and private projects that are set to open in the eighth year since the earthquakes, further expanding Christchurch's offerings. Expect new retail and hospitality areas, food courts and co-working spaces, supermarkets and crucial road links.

They are Labrador X Border Collie both from the same parents born a year apart. They love walks and going to the groynes dog park. They are lovely natured and are used to children and other pets, we've had rats and currently have rabbits and a cat. They seldom bark unless someone is coming up the driveway. There are well behaved and Macguyver attended puppy school. They are both registered, and microchipped and neutered and are up to date with all their vaccinations. It's a really difficult decision to rehome my boys but they only deserve the best. Please reply to this message if interested or would like any further information. Thanks in advance Jeanine

Is your paddling pool legal?

Hi neighbours,

Many people setting up paddling pools for their children this summer will be breaking the law - are you one of them?

Any pool, fixed or portable, deeper than 400mm is now subject to safety provisions under the Building Act, meaning there a quite a few rules you probably aren't even aware of.

For example, do you have a 1.2-metre fixed childproof fence with a self-closing gate opening outwards?

What are your thoughts on paddling pool safety? If faced with an inspection, would your pool set-up pass? Do you think all these rules are essential? What are your tips for setting up a paddling pool safely?

Medium haired Tabby with fluffy tail.
This entire male of approx 1 years has been hanging out around my place at 70 Cutts Rd, Russley for the past 2 weeks. It attacks my male cat every time, pees everywhere which in turn causes my cats to pee as well. This cat is not microchipped nor fixed. I attached a paper collar to it a couple of nights ago, which was answered by a neighbour 4-5 houses away. They have been feeding it for the past 2 weeks, but advised that they do not own it, nor know where it comes from.

All appropriate pages on Facebook have had a listing.

Please let me know if anyone owns this cat.

Thank you.
